What I wore to Indiblogger Meet - Handmade African Textile

Written by 34 Comments

BLUE MANIA? INDIGO MANIA!!!
Finally after a very long gap, Indiblogger meet happened at ITC Grand Chola, Chennai and here's what I wore to the event.

 Peplum Shirt: Bhushavali (made of natural dyed tie dyed fabric from Nigeria)
Jean: Jealous 21
Seed Earrings: Handmade by the tribal artisans of Chatthisgarh, India
Bamboo Bangle: Handmade by the tribal artisans of Chatthisgarh, India
Peeptoes: Jabong IN
Watch: Titan Fasttrack
The top is very very special and very close to my heart. A few posts back, remember in the post on What I wore on Day 2 of the art even, where I had a shot with Vyjayanthi Mala Bali, and I had thanked Big Bro Gasali??? So, who is this Gasali??? He is Gasali Adeyemo from Nigeria. He's a living legend as accredited by the World Crafts Council, for promoting the craft that his forefathers did. Its called Adire Eleko. I got the wonderful chance of meeting him and by the end of the day he was more like a big bro and gifted me a fabulous piece of Jacquard, Natural Indigo dyed, tie-dyed fabric handcrafted by himself!!! And I turned it into this double breasted, mandarin collared, peplum shirt! Hope you like it!

A fabric was gifted to me at ITC Grand Chola  by him and I wore it as a garment back to ITC Grand Chola for Indiblogger meet!!! :) 
This is Gasali with me and I'm wrapped in a vintage fabric more than 50 years old, hand crafted with Adire Eleko by Gasali's forefathers!!! I loaned it from him for this photograph!!! :)
Makeup base: Lakme 9 to 5 Creme Compact in Marble
Eyeshadow: Deborah Milano Ombretto Mono Hi Tech in 34
Eyeliner: Lakme Eye Pencil in Midnight Black
Kajal: Lakme Satin Kajal
Blusher:Lakme Pure Rouge Blusher in Peach Affair
Lipstick: Lakme Enrich Satin Lip Color in 129
